I know what you mean, mate!
First time I went to Bali was Xmas vacation.
On the first day, COOKED the tops of my feet in an afternoon at the beach. Second day got tourist stomach from drinking tapwater. Rest of the time spent in a partial coma from sleep deprivation from roosters crowing next door all night and evening low temperatures of 80 degrees.
I believe after that the universe rotates around IOWA!!!! smile
Nothing like Oktoberfest in the Amanas with Bill Zuber's kids at his pub, the first autumn oak leaves crunching under foot
and the warm feel of the old flannel shirt and Levi's
cheers!
